| Description |
India's partition in 1947 resulted in breaking out of communal riots, acts of loot, plunder, abduction and molestation of women on both sides of the border. The communal and religious hatred between the Muslims and Hindus/Sikhs was at its worst. There was a complete breakdown of law and order. Violence and bloodshed occurred on both sides. This volume contains official records of loss of life and property and atrocities committed on the migrating sections of population in the various parts of northwest frontier province and other Muslim dominated districts falling in the newly created Pakistan state. Obviously, the majority of the victims were migrating Non-Muslims. These records are an authentic reference material for readers and researchers of history[edit]
